Inverter roof ballast.
Stone ballast typically requires crushed graded stone placed over a stone filter sheet rolled out over the insulation.
Inverted roofs are designed with the waterproofing layer usually a liquid applied membrane beneath the insulation.
Contact hydrotech for specific installation guidelines.
A filtration layer is then installed over the insulation to prevent fines from entering the drainage zones and the whole system is then ballasted using paving slabs on support pads or 20 40 mm diameter river washed pebbles.
Ballast roof ballast roofs are your typical inverted roof but using gravel to hold the roofing components into place.
Each kit includes 4 mounting feet plus hardware to install an inverter under a rooftop array.
Outback proharvest offers a ballasted non penetrating rooftop mounting solution for outback proharvest truestring commercial inverters.
It s an enconomic method for extracting the long term performance and cost savings from the inverted roof design with anticipated lower upfront material costs.
In the field of the roof a minimum of 10 lbs s f.
Ironridge bx delivers superior power density and design flexibility to flat roof solar arrays.
Streamline logistics for small and large projects.
Just like in residential solar designers must first verify that the roof can accommodate the weight of a solar array.
In an inverted ballasted roof the insulation boards are then placed over the waterproofing.
Made of a glass reinforced composite the bx chassis is engineered for extreme structural loading yet is also shaped to be roof friendly and easy to install.
Ballasted systems also provide maximum resistance against roof membrane damage and uv degradation protection against thermal shock fire or noise and maintain the lowest surface tem perature of all system types.
Insulation boards are loose laid on top of the membrane and then weighted down with paving slabs or gravel ballast.
Compatible with all major pv inverter brands ecomount is compatible with all major inverter brands and meets the requirements of nearly any project.
Up to 5 standard 4 x8 x16 ballast blocks may be placed on each base to meet even the most demanding conditions.
You ll note that we recommend an open jointed ballast system in conjunction with an inverted roof construction.
Ballast is required with 20 lbs s f.
Bx ballasted for flat roofs uniquely shaped for flat roofs.
Needed at perimeters and at large penetrations.
Open jointed ballast system gravel paving slabs on supports or roof garden.
